It can be better in terms of a security issue if the government and the country own its own internet and disconnect from the internet as the whole world, but this will cause them a lot of disadvantages. From massive data that are floating around the internet, that is how people can create, use, control, and learn things that have not been existed…[Read more]

As the world is entering the whole new IT world, virtual assistant or AI is becoming huge in the IT world. As I own and a huge fan of one of the best AI speakers, Amazon echo, I know how powerful and largely can impact on our daily life. As many companies are entering this market, Facebook also has a smart device called Portal but its not…[Read more]

It has been an issue for a while that some big Chinese companies, Huawei in this case, copying other American companies’ tactics. There was an article that I read that Apple is taking so much consideration compared to other countries when launching new products/software in China because China is inspecting and spying on products and software for…[Read more]

Drones are both positive and negative to our society for sure. I strongly was on the pro side of drone usage in our current world, but now I am in between after reading this. Drones are amazing if we look at what it can do like taking beautiful pictures from the sky, explore dangerous places that human cannot reach, and.even for business purposes…[Read more]

Many companies like Uber, Waymo – google’s self-driving car company, and GM, are focusing on implementing driverless cars on the road. This new feature surely brings many benefits to our society like fewer labor […]

I definitely think that autonomous vehicles are the future and they’re here to stay. Self driving cars have always been a dream to people and the benefits which we will receive from them will be unmatched. From a business perspective this new technology is flipping the whole auto industry on its head because car companies are moving more and more from being car companies to being computers on wheels companies. Much of the industry will have to completely shift their thinking and transform their business model to meet the needs of the future. I personally would love to experience self driving cars not only for the ease of not having to focus on driving, but also for the benefits they provide in safety. Other factors from self driving cars that would benefit society as a whole are the fact that they could immensely reduce traffic congestion, which would relieve stress in our everyday lives and also reduce gas emissions because there would be less cars on the road. If I could afford one right now.

I think that autonomous cars will be beneficial if implemented right. I am not sure if we’re ready for autonomous cars right now though. There are so many issues with these types of cars as of now. Beside an issue relate to accidents, there are also problems related to autonomous cars. We could see potential problems with more auto thieves. Some people will always try to find a way to hack into these cars and can steal valuable information. So, Tesla or any car manufacturers need to make sure that these cars are equipped with multiple layers of securities. In addition, many autonomous cars put pedestrians first meaning that the car will come to a stop if there’s a pedestrian stand in front of it. It is good until we’re in a situation that we need to escape away from thieves. In addition, pedestrians can become more aggressive when trying to cross the road. They wouldn’t care if drivers are going hit them since they know these cars will definitely come to a stop. Imagine how that would be when everyone drives autonomous cars and we’re on Broad St, pedestrians will just cross the street whenever they want. If these companies can find a solution to this problem, I think it would be great. For me, I would love to own an autonomous car in the future. I’m sure in ten years, one of the car companies will solve issues that I mentioned earlier as well as other issues.

I think autonomous vehicles are definitely going to be the future of the road but I think we are much further away from this than people might think. Having our roadways filled with completely autonomous vehicles would be very beneficial to society, creating much less frustration with traffic and human driving errors, but for this to happen these systems would need to be flawless. As the industry is beginning to shift towards autonomous vehicles, companies are investing in R&D in their AI programs. This is good and necessary to ensure the quality of these new cars but there is too much risk for this technology to be implemented immediately, or in the near future in my opinion. There have already been problems with these technology and based on the history of IT projects, I believe there are many more to come before we see truly autonomous vehicles on the road. Personally, I would be interesting in trying some of the autonomous features that some new models offer but as for a fully autonomous vehicle, I would want to wait until the technology haven proven itself to be flawless before letting the computer completely take the wheel.

As a huge fan of Lego products, I am always excited to hear the company trying to experiment in new stuff. I believe that it is a good idea of expanding Lego’s business focus from physical toys into an IT related. Since the world is entering the whole new generation of IT like virtual reality, augmented reality and voice assistance, it is…[Read more]

Amazon is one of the largest e-commerce business in America today. It has tested, experimented and launched many different types of business strategies and products. The most recent plan that Amazon announced is […]

This is incredibly interesting and potentially revolutionary for product shipments if successful. I think that Amazon is making a strong move to seal their competitive advantage by patenting this shipment system. I’m really interested to know how the algorithm being developed will work, and how successful it will be. For something this new, I would think that Amazon might want to employ several human checks on it while in development–before jumping to more drone-based deliveries–that is.

I wonder how successful this will be in terms of customer satisfaction. Amazon will not be able to tell if a customer needs an item when they might have already purchased said item somewhere else, for one thing. As well if an item is delivered to a customer and they are not home, and aren’t available to confirm the purchase, what will happen in this instance? There are a lot of factors at play here that Amazon will need to address going forward. It sounds like an excellent plan to me if they can get past these obstacles.

Throughout the presentation, Steve Jobs’s presentation was very powerful, memorable, and visual. Some people can say he is just talented for presenting, but I would say that he forced himself to learn people’s wants and needs. Therefore, Steve Jobs could make his presentation very simple but contains all the information he and audiences need. The…[Read more]
